Hello, thank you very much for sharing this design, I'll download it and print it asap. Me and my wife promote STEAM Education in Mexico and are always looking for tools that we can provide teachers with. We usually organize events called Raspberry Jam Mexico, where we bring all kinds of projects to show, including computer-based (that's where the events' name come from, as you may have guessed), other kinds of microcontrollers like ESP32 or Arduinos, all manners of handcrafted items and, after we bought a 3D printer for a businees we are starting, printed devices that can be used for STEAM. We also printed your Braille cells and are offering them to Braille schools and/or teachers for free, so the students can use and keep them. I don't have any requests at this time but I'll certainly contact you whenever any ideas pop up. Thanks again and cheers!

Brilliant model design seems very fun, but just wondering if it's designed to help kids understand. Wouldn't it be nice to also have measurement markers on the side in inches in millimeters? And if it had angle finding capabilities as well then. I would assume it could be very useful in helping kids learn geometry. a side of this length and a side of that length equals this angle, etc.
@3DPrinty2 күн бұрын
Certainly! If you're teaching a concept that requires actual measurements, that can be a nice customization! So I'm looking into remixing the design with an optional angle (and possibly length) readout :)

Actual geometry teacher here. Been doing it for 13 years. I have some clicky pieces to demonstrate these theorems when we cover them but love this idea so much more. The fact that you can change size and angles without taking the triangle apart will be huge. Definitely gonna print a few and give it a shot next semester, since we already moved past this unit for this semester. An idea for the future would be a printable "protractor" that could be used to set specific angles instead of making up arbitrary unknown ones that the kids cant "see." Maybe just a few of the most common degrees (30,45, 60, 90) or just increments of 15 instead of all 180. Just an idea seriously love this, will let you know how it works in about 4-5 months!

I'll also need to check that a PETG spring (PLA is likely out of the question) will be durable enough to outlive more than a single demo before becoming too brittle.

Ooh, 3d molecule demonstration models that are big enough to show in front of class.
@3DPrinty3 күн бұрын
Great idea! I see there are quite a few 3D printable molecule models out there, but nothing really optimized for print at larger scale. This also would be a good use of TPU for the flexible bonds. What would be your ideal target size for the actual molecule nodes? Would it be better to use a simple straight plug connection for rapid assembly, or should the bonds have a more secure hold that can't fall out but will take an extra moment to lock?
@beetleguise3 күн бұрын
@@3DPrinty Ideally a carbon atom of about 70-80 mm would be great. This would make the models pretty big pretty fast, but for basic chemistry better visibility would be preferable. I think some way to prevent the model from falling apart would also be preferable. It is ok to take a moment to unlock the bonds. By the way, I think it's great that you're doing educational products, thanks for even thinking about my suggestion.
@beetleguiseКүн бұрын
An extra challenge in making the bonds is in the fact that single bonds should be able to rotate. On the other hand it would be nice to have just a set that would show the stochiometry of burning methane and ethane. But it is of course wise to think about expansion of a system.
@3DPrintyКүн бұрын
Am I correct assuming that they rotate around the axis of the bond? For example, if a molecule looks like a pair of glasses (two circles with a single bond in the middle connecting them), the two circular ends can rotate so that the face of those "glasses" can be in alignment (coplanar) or twisted? Or are they able to rotate along some other axis that I'm misunderstanding? If it's the scenario I described, that's no problem - I was brainstorming connection options and the one I'm considering would allow the bond piece to twist freely without coming loose :)
@beetleguiseКүн бұрын
@@3DPrinty that is correct, atoms connected by single bonds rotate freely around the axis of their bond. This is what makes folding of proteins and dna possible for example.

An extension of this triangle would be to make a model to demonstrate the ambiguous case of The Sine Rule (or as you Merkins say: The Law of Sines)
@3DPrinty3 күн бұрын
Very good idea! I imagine that I could demonstrate that by switching out one of the triangle sides with a sort of fixed length ruler that extends beyond the triangle. You could then lock the opposite angle to that side as well as one of the other sides. The ambiguous side will be free to swing back and forth demonstrating various points where it has the same length at two different angles. I'll look into adding this as a remix, so the additional parts don't make the base project confusing.

@3DPrinty16 күн бұрын
Oops, yeah, it's a little easy to get wrong. Fortunately, you can probably print a second pair of pumpkins parts with the correct orientations and save all the parts :) You have several magnet orientation options: 1. For more clicks per rotation, place all the magnets in the top with one orientation and all the magnets in the bottom with the opposite orientation. 2. For fewer clicks per rotation (with a stronger snap), alternate the orientation of the magnets every hole on both sides. The tricky part here is making sure the two sides still pull together when the face parts line up (opposite orientation magnets). I hope that helps... and maybe you'll be able to save that first print.
